What does this roads entailed ( Roads are not for masses )

Cycling is one of the issue, promoted to archive healthy lifestyle. this was one of the central massage from all the speakers, the point was made well relevant from speaker Vibhuti , she spotlit that today seminar would be relevant , if the outcome of the seminar provide few practical suggestion on, how cycling can be made as practical mode of transportation in city.

This is ignorance, if we think the goodness of cycling is not known to community

The need is to know , why cycling is not used as mode of transport

The answer is simple , 16% of deaths on roads are of cyclist & pedestrian.

The argument is given that 16% is not 'on higher' side , as we see 27 % deaths are from 2/3 wheelers category. this adds up to 33 % in total for all 2/3 wheelers ,pedestrians & cyclist.

The cause of high percentage for 2 wheelers on roads ( i.e 71 % ) is due to failure of government to provide adequate & efficient public transport system. The total buses are just 1% of the total registered vehicles.

I find this two official documents , for the support of my data

An apex organisation under the Central Government , The Ministry of Road Transport & Highway, main vehemence is on road that are suitable for hight speed traffic, which count only care, jeeps & taxis ( 13 % ) & LMV ( 5%) . for whom the driving speed limit can be above 100 Km/ hr. where els 71% use is with two wheelers , with driving speed of 50-60 Km/hr.

What NGOs should target , for bringing a change in road system for integrating safe cycling:

(1) Advocating formation of separate wing in , The Ministry of Road Transport & Highway , for safety of cycle & other non motored vehicles along with pedestrian.

(2) Identity roads of city with heavy traffic & speed , mobilize local authority to mark cycling & non motored lane on it.

(3) Make educational institutes & government premises 'ONLY CYCLES & PEDESTRIAN' zone.

(4) Get free parking status for cycles at all the parking lots.
